A cord is wound round the circumference of wheel of radius \(r\). The axis of the wheel is horizontal and the moment of inertia about it is \(I. \,A\) weight \(mg\) is attached to the cord at the end. The weight falls from rest. After falling through a distance \( 'h '\), the square of angular velocity of wheel will be ..... .

  1. A \(\frac{2 mgh }{ I +2 mr ^{2}}\)
  2. B \(\frac{2 mgh }{ I + mr ^{2}}\)
  3. C \(2 gh\)
  4. D \(\frac{2 gh }{ I + mr ^{2}}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{2 mgh }{ I + mr ^{2}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(mgh =\frac{1}{2} I \omega^{2}+\frac{1}{2} mv ^{2}\) \(v =\omega r\) \(mgh =\frac{1}{2} I \omega^{2}+\frac{1}{2} m \omega^{2} r ^{2}\) \(\frac{2 mgh }{\left( I + mr ^{2}\right)}=\omega^{2}\)
